Weekly Driving Lessons
Weekly driving lessons are a great way of learning to drive. Our driving instructors offer hourly driving lessons, one and a half or two hour blocks.
Alternatively, you may wish to increase the number of driving lessons per week. You will receive high quality driving instruction on a one to one basis.
Driving Lesson Prices
At DVDS our driving lesson prices are very competitive. We offer the option to pay for your driving lessons on a weekly basis. If you would rather pay for a block booking of 10 hours or more this can be done at a discounted rate.
Meet The Team
At DVDS you can take a look at the driving instructors, take a look at their cars and also read a little about them before your first lesson. All the driving instructors are fully qualified Approved Driving Instructors.
Automatic Driving Lessons
When you decide to have automatic driving lessons it’s important to choose the right driving school. At Dedham Vale Driving School we have Garry, Rick and Kieran who are experienced driving instructors and have taught people to drive in automatic cars for many years.
Intensive Driving Courses
An intensive driving course in Colchester or Clacton is ideal for someone who wants to obtain a full driving licence in a short amount of time. It involves you driving daily with the same driving instructor.

The Best Experience Ever
I’m really pleased that I passed my practical driving test with zero faults, first time. Mandy was a fantastic instructor who really made me feel at ease and made learning to drive fun, from the very beginning.
Unfortunately my lessons had to be put on hold for a while, as Mandy had a bad physical accident, but she stayed in touch and did her very best to continue with my progress and see me finish my driving journey.
Her determination and friendship throughout the time we met and throughout the whole time I learnt to drive , was the reason I stayed positive and knew I could pass.
Thank you DVDS and in particular Mandy for a fun, exciting, fulfilling driving experience with the best outcome, can’t recommend you enough!

Anna is an absolutely fantastic driving instructor as well as a lovely person! She taught my son to drive and he passed his test first time in just under six weeks. He thoroughly enjoyed his lessons and the regular feedback I received on his progress from Anna was fantastic. I feel reassured with him being let loose behind a wheel having had such a positive learning experience.

Just passed my test with Simon and couldn’t recommend him more as a instructor, very patient with me as I learned and really helped to build my confidence during our lessons. Will miss my weekly lessons with him but can’t thank him enough for getting me to where I am and driving
